Product Description

Sergeant of the Light Company 1st Foot Guards at Waterloo in 1815. The 1st Foot Guards (later Grenadier Guards) won fame during the battle as they held one of the most contested areas of the ridge during the day. In the evening, when Napoleon decided to commit his famed Imperial Guards, the 1st Foot Guards bore the brunt of the attack. The Imperial Guard reached the crest of the Allied position but at the vital moment Maitland's Guards rose up to deliver a series of devastating volleys of fire which drove back the Frenchman forcing them to retire in disorder. With this the battle was as good as won.
Stands 8" tall,
